This compact yet highly functional kitchen is also glamorous with a capital G. The stylish peninsula allows four people to dine comfortably and also adds additional work space when needed. Cabinets all the way to the ceiling, lots of mirror, including a mirrored kick plate, multiple reflective surfaces and various lighting make the room appear larger than its 10 x 10 footprint. Note the extra thick counters with water fall ends, custom table leg, and over-sized cabinet pulls. Another trick to add interest and scale is to use different finishes for the upper and lower cabinets. Don't forget the fourth wall (the ceiling) when designing your space. This kitchen's ceiling is adorned with a silvery paper embossed to look like a beautifully tufted sofa.
